Lyrics to Breaking Up The Union:

Why worry if you’re left or right?
No decision can be black or white
They give you odds, but the outcome is certain
Every actor must prepare for the curtain
Minds open, and curtains are drawn
The King’s fate, delivered by Pawns 
You make plans, and hope they will follow
How many times, can you make them swallow?
An Election broke up the Union (3)
Goodbye, Goodbye, Goodbye
Your palace is a pile of bricks
It’s magic in the way that it sticks
Grant pieces to the faraway people
It keeps them happy but the power is lethal
An Election broke up the Union (3)
Goodbye, Goodbye, Goodbye
Instrumental
I’m not saying it’s going to be bad
It’s not broken, but the feeling is sad
Scattered members of the family setup
Seek fortune in a federal getup
An Election broke up the Union (3)
Goodbye, Goodbye
Goodbye, Goodbye
Goodbye, Goodbye

Lyrics

Going On Our Holidays
Now that it’s light in the morning
And now that the thaw has begun
The clouds have slipped back to the corners
I’m feeling the warmth of the sun
We’re nearing the time of vacation
The kids have gone outside to play
Pick a spot on the map, have you cleared a little gap?
‘Cause we’re going on our holidays
Shall we head up to the mountains
Or fly to an island of Greece?
Gaze at a city of culture
Or find an oasis of peace
It’s time to turn off the computer
The prepping and packing can’t wait
Pick a spot on the map, have you cleared a little gap?
‘Cause we’re going on our holidays
Somewhere we’ll be
Not far from warm enough seas
To take a little splash
And it’s just like dreaming
Forgot to pack up my phone charger
And none of my socks seem to match
The weight of the luggage is over
We’ll just put our shoes in the trash
So pass me the stressball my lovely
We’ve finally boarded the plane
Pick a spot on the map, have you cleared a little gap?
‘Cause we’re going on our holidays
We will find
A place to chill and unwind
To reaffirm we’re in love
Happy Daytimes!
Whistle
Pick a spot on the map, have you cleared a little gap?
‘Cause we’re going on our holidays
